So, my header is a clickable header. Can you have a clickable header AND overlaying test that refreshes itself? If I increase the header, the quotes start appearing below the header logo. I want the quotes to sit on top of the header, in the blank blue area beneath the purple text. I also want the quotes to sit centered and have a margin so they don’t overlap with the background image. Help?!

I wonder if it’s an index problem. If so, how would I fix it? Any suggestions?

Thanks John, but I understand how to use custom menus as described in the video; none of the questions I posed were in answered in the video. There seems to be no control over style and nesting with the custom menus. If anyone knows differently, please share. Thanks!

Doh! Glad it was such an easy fix. I feel a bit foolish but thankful I had you two to set me on the right path. THANK YOU!!

Thanks but my sidebar already has CSS for 200px. Here is the code on my stylesheet: `#sidebar {
width: 200;
float: right;
}`

I do know the very basics and I feel like I did everything right. Which is why I am now stumped! Hope somebody can help me. THANKS!

You can ignore my post. The changes eventually displayed correctly on my site, it just took about 15 minutes for some reason.

Hmm, the changes are now appearing. For some reason there was like a 15 minute delay for the changes to display correctly on my site. Ignore this question!

I hope somebody can help me on this!!

I tried styling in the css file but it doesn’t work. I am trying to get the quote bolded and in a different color. Here is the code I used: `.quotescollection_randomquote q {
color: #B3117E;
font-weight: bold;
}`

Did I put it on the wrong variable?

Also, I can’t get the quotes to remove. I uncommented the block as directed but it still shows quotes. Help!

Does it mean anything that my css file says “inactive” at top? I have tried many different changes in css and NONE of them show up on the site. Do I have to paste the css into my theme’s style sheet?

Two other things I want to know:

• Is it possible to remove the automatic title subject from custom menus and instead use an image?
• Is it possible to style the custom menu – e.g. add a background color behind the menu links?

Oh, I just realized the answer to my 3rd question…in the php code I posted above, i found this: “&show_home=1” and changed it to “&show_home=0” so that fixed it for me.

Now all I need help figuring out is how to enlarge that menu font. I have tried everything I can think of. Thanks for any help!

Thanks so much for the first tip about margin. That worked.
Second tip about enlarging font size did not work.

Right now I am not using any widgets in the sidebar. But the theme seems to be using some widgets. Here is possibly related code in sidebar.php:

<div id="sidebar">
	<hr />
	<h2>Sidebar</h2>
<?php if (!function_exists('dynamic_sidebar') || !dynamic_sidebar()): /* Sidebar Widgets Plugin (https://automattic.com/code/widgets/) */ ?>
	<div id="pages" class="widget">
		<h3>Pages</h3>
		<?php if (function_exists('wswwpx_fold_page_list')) { ?>
		<div class="widget_content">
			<ul>
				<?php wswwpx_fold_page_list('sort_column=menu_order&title_li='); /* Fold Page List Plugin (https://www.webspaceworks.com/resources/wordpress/30/) */ ?>
			</ul>
		</div>
		<?php } else wp_page_menu('sort_column=menu_order&depth=1&menu_class=widget_content&show_home=1') ?>

I’m really confused by it. If I try putting a Pages widget or Custom widget in the widget section, I lose all the nice formatting that comes with the theme, including the rollover symbols to the right of the menu links. I’ve had to reinstall WP 4x already to get it back.

Turns out it was a problem with my host’s server. All is okay now. ??

You both rock, thanks for the quick responses!

Right now I have multisite enabled. Is that why it added in the “blog” in the URL? It hasn’t done that on my other sites. If I remove the multisite, will it remove the blog directory automatically?

I figured out #2, one down three to go. Is there anyone that can help me figure out the simple CSS changes? It’s over my head. I have searched and searched online for tutorials but none of the ones I found worked when I implemented them. I just need to move the horizontal top header to the right side as vertical buttons. Anyone??
